Description
Unlike any other book that has looked at air support for the British army in the Second World War, Strategy for Victory: The Development of British Tactical Air Power, 1919-1943 examines the highly contentious and protracted debate between the British army and the RAF over air support from the perspectives of the airmen - both the Air Staff in the UK and the RAF deployed on expeditionary operations overseas.
